Event Description
The oneTree exhibit project will promote the fascinating interrelationship between art and nature by celebrating the past, present, and future of one particular Bigleaf Maple tree by salvaging its wood, making functional art from it, and recording the creative process. Intimacy with the life of this oneTree will enhance our relationship with nature as a whole.
For almost a century this old growth Bigleaf Maple from the Cowichan Valley stood witness to the events that shaped Vancouver Island. It needed to come down in October 2014 for health and safety reasons. Now we invite you to celebrate this tree through an exhibit of exquisitely made from its wood.
oneTree is a collaborative exhibit project of the Robert Bateman Centre, Live Edge Design, and wood artisans from across Vancouver Island. Together, we will share the history, beauty, and natural story of this oneTree across multiple platforms.
